Why Choose La Miette Patisserie?

La Miette Patisserie draws locals back week after week for French-style pastries made fresh daily on the premises. The choux, croissants and tarts, especially the pistachio and raspberry, are made to order and arrive warm from the oven, paired with excellent local coffee and a relaxed courtyard setting.

About La Miette Patisserie

Locals in Golden Point who like their pastry done the French way tend to end up at La Miette Patisserie, and plenty of them seem to make it a regular stop. It's a patisserie, so think tarts, choux, croissants and handmade sweet pastries rather than loaves and pies, with locally roasted Enga coffee alongside.

The tarts in particular get talked about with real affection. The pistachio and raspberry tart is a favourite, the almond croissant has its followers, and the choux with fresh raspberry and chocolate comes highly regarded. The hot chocolate is another quiet favourite. Baked goods are made fresh on the premises, and there's a good run of gluten-free desserts, plus a vegan cake option for those who need it.

The staff earn warm words too. Most people describe friendly, welcoming service, though you may occasionally experience quieter moments at the counter. Some also find it on the pricier side, which comes with the high-end style of pastry.

The shop itself is on the small side, but there's indoor seating and a generous outdoor area that works well for a catch-up over coffee. You can dine in or take your treats away. There's free parking nearby, an accessible entrance and car park, and card and tap payments are accepted. The hours are shorter than most bakeries and the shop is closed early in the week, so check before you head in.

“When it got handed over, I realised it was still warm- not reheated- warm from the oven. What ensued was, hands down, the best almond croissant experience of my life.”
